Lighting plays a major role in creating character within a space. As ELLE outlines in the article, it's in these winter months that lighting becomes the star of the show and everyone scrambles to find the perfect glow. It's because of the instrumental impact that lighting has, that Tollgard only partners with brands that embody a true passion for creating artisan, high quality and something a bit out of the ordinary, so it's no wonder that Studio Aristotelis Barakos is one of our favourite brands.
The article touches on Barakos' unassuming journey into the lighting design industry, to the Studio's partnership with Tollgard. However, the main spotlight is on the unparallel quality and fostering of craftsmanship that Barakos instils in his studio.

Analysis
Studio Aristotelis Barakos brings together storytelling and craftsmanship, merging modern elegance with a respect for heritage. Collaborating with a network of skilled artisans, each piece is handmade from carefully chosen, high-quality materials, designed to achieve enduring beauty. Based on the concept of the Théros family of lighting objects, ceramicist Giannis Zois was commissioned to reinterpret the lighting objects using materials and techniques of his own craft.
The lamps' sweet figures evoke in all their simplicity the image of a person in the sun, narrating a timeless story of peaceful holidays basking in soothing, milky sunlight. The deep red colour of the ceramic bases is a reference to terracotta, a material that is widespread around the Mediterranean, and therefore was a natural addition to the project.
Peter Weber was born in 1944 in Kollmar/Elbe, Germany. He lives and works near Munich, Germany and in Vignale / Monferrato, Italy
Work in Progress, Peter Weber
"The folding material is transformed from a flat surface into a three-dimensional, architectonic structure, which, when unfolded, glides back into a flat relief. It is the idea of wholeness that fascinates and entices me to persevere to the limits of what is technically feasible in order to resolve the problems connected with the complex structure.”
Area Penetration, Peter Weber
Using the most varied techniques and materials, Peter Weber has developed a system for folding the entire surface of a single piece of material without cutting it. His folded works of undyed or dyed felt, which has been Weber’s dominant material since 2001, exhibit a strong materiality. Discover more about the artist and his process below.
The pieces in this show called “Vernetzung” show clearly how complex a pure folding is. In addition to felt and paper, Weber also uses materials such as handmade paper, canvas, cotton, high-dense polyethylene and even steel. In late 2017, he created his first folded steel reliefs.

Weber's work, perfectly ties together and echoes the collection of furniture that will be on display throughout the exclusive UK launch of Man of Parts. From Rakumbas, Big Glow, the felted lights made from Australian wool and plant-based compostable fibre, reflecting Weber's use of soft materials, to Man of Parts' Via Bernina Round table, which mimics the strong graphic forms which Weber's work transforms into.
